• Rudimental wrote this electronic love song with UK singer/songwriter/producer Raphaella, who also sings on the track. Raphaella was inspired by the famous opening passage of Charles Dickens' classic novel A Tale Of Two Cities, which reads:
  
  It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of light, it was the season of darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair.
  
  "And I thought, what about if it was 'the last of times'?" she recalled in a 2020 Songfacts interview. "What would you do and what would you say to the person you love instead of holding back for sake of fear or pride? So I just freestyled around that idea."
